61:1  

  • To the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
  • 61:2  From the end of the earth I cry to You when my heart is overwhelmed; lead me to the Rock higher than me,

    61:3  For You have been a shelter for me, a strong tower against the enemy.

    61:4  I will dwell in Your tabernacle forever; I will take refuge in the hiding place of Your wings. Selah.

    61:5  For You, O God, have heard my vows; You have given me the heritage of those who fear Your name.

    61:6  May You add to the days of the king's life; may his years be as many generations.

    61:7  May he abide before God forever; prepare mercy and truth to preserve him.

    61:8  So I will sing praise to Your name forever, so that I may daily perform my vows.
